Hi!

While reading the VM source I was wondering about how flexible it
shall be with regard to the page sizes used.  Is the goal just to
support 4k pages and if that works it is good enough or shall it be
more flexible if one wishes to use smaller or larger pages?

The actual mapping in pmap.c of course has to cope with hardware
restrictions.  My questions is just concerned with the machine
independent part.

Stefan.
